  Third Agers, Part ONE    
More of us are living longer. By 2050, more than 1 in 5 of us will be over 60. The World’s Jane Little presents this in-depth examination of the politics, economics and sociology of aging.  
FIRST HALF


In this documentary produced for the BBC World Service, Jane Little meets some extraordinary people who give “old age” a new meaning. They include an 81-year-old Hungarian ballerina who now lives in the U.S.; a grandmother who cares for her granddaughter in a Kenyan slum; the founder of a combined day care center for children and their grandparents in Brazil; and three generations of women in Beijing.

Dr. Edith Eva Eger
SECOND HALF


Economics increasingly comes into play as people age. The World’s Jane Little reports on how finances impact the lives of seniors, especially when it comes to medical care.

Loretta Steinecke
